The story

Trumer Brauerei has been brewing beer for 400 years in Austria. Pilsner beer was first brewed in 1842 in the city of Plzeň (German: Pilsen) in Bohemia, today the Czech Republic.

After opening a brewery in Berkeley, Trumer Pils became widely available in the San Francisco Bay Area in addition to its native Austria, the result of a partnership between Privatbrauerei Josef Sigl and the Gambrinus Company. All ingredients used in Berkeley are shipped from Austria with the exception of the water which is from the High Sierras. Hops used in the recipe include Czech Saaz, German Hallertau Perle, and Spalt Select. Trumer is aged six weeks prior to bottling.

Trumer Pils was acquired by Duvel Moortgat in 2026. The Berkeley facility at 1404 Fourth Street permanently shut its doors at the end of May 2026. Brewing operations were relocated to Firestone Walker Brewing Company.
